O tej zvočni knjigi

Thurkad has fallen and Karan, driven into madness by a forbidden spell, is left for dead. Her dearest friend, Llian the Tale-Spinner, is abducted by the renegade Aachim leader, Tensor, who plans to use the Twisted Mirror for an act of millennial vengeance. And he knows how to take advantage of Llian’s fatal weakness – his hunger for his own Great Tale. But Karan is determined to recover and rescue Llian, and the stolen mirror must be retaken. Allies and enemies pursue Tensor across the pitiless desert of the Dry Sea to Katazza, a lost fortress of power built over the earth-shattering Rift. There, proscribed magics will drive a desperate man to a monumental folly – and the Twisted Mirror will unleash forces that could change the fate of three worlds. Now the allies’ only hope lies in Karan pulling off one of the greatest feats of all time – assuming she can fight off the madness that curses her family. This is a refreshed cover edition.
